Levator nasolabialis functions (2)
Dilate nostril
Elevate and retract Rostral portion of lip
Levator labii superioris function
Elevate middle of upper lip
Caninus functions (2)
Dilate nostril
Elevates corner of mouth = snarling
buccinator function
Work with tongue to keep food on teeth

Often damaged during surgeries draining external ear
3 layers of lips and cheek (outermost to innermost)
Skin
Muscle and connective tissue
Mucosa
Only significant distinction between lips and cheeks

Is masseter a muscle of facial expression
No
Masseter is a muscle of
Mastication
What determines relative size of cheeks and lips
Typical mouth function
Larger lips = open mouth wide

Parotid gland
Branches of facial nerve (2)
Auriculopalpebral
Dorsal and ventral buccal
Auriculopalpebral nerve: branch of what nerve, path in face
From facial nerve
Crosses zygomatic arch to reach Rostral muscles of ear and muscles that close eyelids
Which of the facial nerve branches is often blocked for ophthalmic exams
